An image reading apparatus includes an optical unit for reading the image information by scanning and irradiating the photostimulable phosphor plate with the excitation light from a light source and converging photo-stimulated luminescence light emitted from the photostimulable phosphor plate to conduct photoelectric conversion, a base table, a linear motor for moving the optical unit with respect to the base table, a wire fixed on the base table at both ends of the wire, a pulley rotatably fixed on the optical unit for being rotated by relative movement between the pulley and the wire caused by the movement of the optical unit, a rotary encoder for detecting a rotational speed of the pulley; and a control section for controlling the linear motor based on a detection result of the rotary encoder, wherein the wire is wound not less than one turn around the pulley and inclined at a predetermined angle against a line crossing a rotational axis of the pulley at right angle.
